Machiavelli's task could not be completed for the time being, so Ladislaus re-examined his own task and made plans again.

I don't know where to start "restoring the strength of Sirica Boss", but it is much clearer to find a faith for Old John. Although Ladislaus values ​​Sirica Boss more than Old John, he must also arrange his resources reasonably.

, can't be wasted like a headless fly.

However, Machiavelli was Ladislaus's most valued subordinate, so Ladislaus still had some discussions with him about his financial plan, and promised to use Machiavelli Bank after the White Onyx sailors were recruited.

During trade settlement, when he learned that Machiavelli Bank still had several docks in Rome that could be rented out at preferential prices, Ladislaus also expressed that he could hand over this business to Machiavelli Bank immediately.

However, Machiavelli wisely insisted on giving the job to Captain Jack Sparrow. When doing business with his family, he had to avoid suspicion at all costs.

Although Ladislaus once said that he still trusted Machiavelli the most, Machiavelli's persistence made him even more satisfied.

After the two arranged their work, they chatted for a while and exchanged views on the history and art of the city of Rome. Machiavelli was surprised to learn that Ladislaus had a low opinion of the Sistine Chapel.

He said that as the ambassador of Florence, he had received an interview with the previous elected Pope there, and felt that the carved beams and painted buildings were unlike the human world, which was very shocking. It was indeed a masterpiece.

Regarding Ladislaus's negative comments, Machiavelli thought that it was because Ladislaus did not get the attention he wanted from the elected Pope, so he resented Ujiwu a little.

As an artist, he worked hard to introduce Michelangelo's masterpiece in the Sistine Chapel to Ladislaus.

Machiavelli had a great sense of mission to strengthen the feelings and identity of the royal family of the Holy Roman Empire towards Italy and consider themselves to be members of the Holy Roman Empire, not just Austrians.

Ladislaus also understood that now that he had the surname "Habsburg", showing his appreciation for Italian culture would help strengthen the connection between the two major ethnic groups within the Holy Roman Empire.

So even though I was extremely disappointed with the so-called famous painting "Genesis" that was extremely dull in my memory, I still listened to Machiavelli talking endlessly about Michelangelo's genius and diligence as much as possible.

But no matter what, Ladislaus still couldn't accept Machiavelli's point of view. After all, seeing is believing.

So when the Marquise Facchetti came to Ladislaus's reception room with dinner, Ladislaus was very happy to be relieved.

Machiavelli was working hard last night when Ladislaus was in "close contact" and had no idea that his master had so quickly become lucky.

However, since he is the most knowledgeable person, he immediately understood that he should resign. It is obvious that the Marquise Facchetti is the "artwork" that his master cares most about at the moment.

After Anna got up in the afternoon, she was introduced by Old Colonna to a senior priest of Cassus, the Lord of Fire in Rome, to pray for the safety of his father and brother. Although Lurna had brought the knight Cassano to join them

After hearing the news about old Xibo and his son, Anna was still worried that she could not enter Rome safely.

Anna is very grateful to Old Colonna. The Dark Sun dominates the city of Rome, and there are no temples for any other gods. However, because this is the most important religious center in Europe, the churches of the main gods often arrange for senior priests to manage a small altar here.

However, this kind of small altar can only maintain a diplomatic presence, and the most basic religious activities are also suppressed by the Dark Sun Church. Although worship can be performed, public preaching and activities cannot be carried out, and it is difficult for outsiders to find it.

Old Colonna not only helped pull the strings, but also asked the "official mistress" of his dead son to take Anna with him.

It can be said that the service was attentive. Anna was really satisfied and even secretly determined that if one day she could take back the Republic of Liguria, she would repay the kindness of the Colonna family.

Although she was a little disappointed that Ladislaus could not come to pray with her, Anna also understood Ladislaus' current status and his busy work.

Poor Anna couldn't figure out why old Colonna was so attentive and considerate, and why the lady who didn't believe in Kassus, the Lord of Fire, reluctantly stayed with her despite losing her man.

The poor chick was sold by the old bird, and he gratefully helped transport his stored grain to the old bird's nest.

This method of offering women is really admirable.

Ladislaus admired Old Colonna while enjoying the wine brought from Susan's mouth.

This not only avoids embarrassment, but also gives Ladislaus and Anna room for change.

Ladislaus naturally understands that Anna will inevitably get angry in the end, but with a little space and not making Anna look bad in front of her, he should not have to break up. On the one hand, he has now become a member of the warlock royal family.

As the spokesperson of the Apennine Peninsula, the Xibo family is very demanding of themselves in order to revive. On the other hand, the recent period of life and death has made them really have a deep relationship.

The most important thing is that after losing the Marquis's property, Marquise Defacchetti is actually reluctant to be Ladislaus's "official mistress". Nowadays, the Colonna family, which is also strapped for resources, cannot provide anything that can let Ladislaus.

Ladislaus's heartfelt dowry, after all, Ladislaus was no ordinary archbishop.

Moreover, the Marquise has been married for many years and is no longer young, but she has never had a childbirth history. This is also a very disadvantageous condition.

Yes, just like ordinary marriage, "marriage" with a high priest also depends on dowry and fertility.

Not to mention that although the Warlock inheritance places great emphasis on incest marriage, it is still possible to give birth to a powerful Warlock with a mother who has no Warlock blood at all.

Of course, it would be best to find a wife who is closer by blood, but as far as Ladislaus knows, his paternal cousins ​​should have no contact in Hungary, and they are all separated by one generation, although the Roman Church prohibits the fourth generation.

However, the Hungarian royal family is actually very wary of the increasingly powerful Habsburg family. It seems unlikely that Ladislaus and these cousins ​​will have a relationship.

What a fate.

The contemporary Emperor and the Acting Grand Duke do have several concubine sisters. The church will never accept this kind of relationship. Of course, the wives of these two brothers must be princesses of some important country.

And even if Anna is not the daughter of a consul, she is now a level 7 druid. Marquise Facchetti does not have enough capital to compete.

Any society is actually open to men with power and money, and Anna was also an aristocrat who grew up in this environment, so she would accept it under the influence.

Not to mention the powerful warlocks with names in history, none of them are known to be famous for their loyalty.

In short, after fully evaluating the costs and risks, Ladislaus felt that he could continue to eat secretly.

Anna, who had been praying until night, returned to the Colonna Palace and was told that Ladislaus had gone to bed early after a busy day, so she didn't think much about it and continued to enjoy the large bath by herself.

I just don’t know what Anna, who is happily water skiing in the pool, would think if she knew that an hour ago, two people took a bath together and did something else by the way.

Of course, Ladislaus was indeed busy with some serious business. In addition to herself, Marquise Facchetti also brought a message from his father.

Knowing that Ladislaus intended to use the captured ships for trade, Old Colonna said that he could use the Colonna family's connections in Rome to make a purchase for Ladislaus. Not only would the price be based on the settlement price, but the payment would also be

The payment will be settled after the White Onyx returns.

Tired Susan didn't forget to ask Ladislaus which route he planned to take before going to bed so that he could decide on the type of purchase.

It’s just that Ladislaus has not determined the trade route yet. He is waiting for the ship owner, Ms. La Silis. Although the lover complained many times that he wanted to have a big ship to expand trade in the Black Continent, they did not meet to discuss the distribution of benefits.

Dislaus was not sure whether his ship could only find a job to help the emperor transport military supplies. This job required connections and could only provide enough food and clothing, so it was really the next best choice.

Of course, there is no need to explain this issue to the person next to me today.

However, Ladislaus was still very satisfied with the good intentions of the Colonna family. After all, he decided to do the task of "restoring the strength of Sirica's boss". He had just had a flash of inspiration when he was talking about Italian art with Machiavelli, and he already had some ideas.

The direction is just that it will cost a lot of money, and the money is not very rich.

If you can buy goods first and then check out, you will have much more funds, and this should also be part of the Colonna family's mission.
